My heart felt thanks to all those who sent prayers, condolence and messages because you have been blessed by JR's presence and memories in your heart and lives. It's been just a few days since your last breathe in this world my brother, but we dearly miss your thoughtfulness, and loving kindness; your,gentle smile, your voice and wonderful encouragement too. It's hard to accept that we can't ride the paved highways together again or go camping but every mile and camp fire we enjoyed together will carry your memory and joy of being together on those rides and great times we got to share. My tears of missing you will evaporate but never the memories of having you at my side as we shared and enjoyed the years of our family times together. I am blessed to know you were born again in Jesus when we were young because I am with you in spirit now, I look forward to being together again with Him too. So stop making me cry; I'm running low on tissues. Love you Bro! See you there!

After a well fought battle, a true "Soldier of Christ" has moved on knowing full well this was not a final stop. J.R was always ready to serve his family, friends and the American Legion he loved so much. J.R., your mission here is done. Bravo Zulu, my friend, well done. You can rest assured "Mission Accomplished". Onward Christian Soldier. It was an honor to know you. REST IN PEACE. my friend. :-(

JR was an amazing guy, as soon as he walked in a room always had a warm welcome always kind and a great gentleman and friend. He never had a bad word, to say about anyone and was a great listener. He was an American Hero, upstanding and always came to our events to support our legion. I wish there were more people like him, kind and never judged anyone. He was always fair, and had a big heart and loved everyone he met and be will be truly missed.
